I think one of the problems with the current system is that if you
fall into one of the medical catergories for free prescriptions, then
all your prescriptions are free.
Perhaps better would be that the drugs in the particular class *only*
should be free eg free thyroxine, but you have to pay for everything
else, if otherwise you don't qualify for free prescriptions because
of "poverty".
